I used to wear t-shirts and jeans as an overweight guy. Once I lost all the excess weight, I had to replace my wardrobe. I bought shirts and sweaters. Also nice sneakers (I am 21, go easy on me) gave me a nice look. I started getting compliments both from men and women. I started to observe that their look has changed. That gave me confidence. Thanks to everybody who had an effort on this channel, you helped me to better myself.
@@jesussilva269 Target a calorie deficit and find ways you can to maintain it. That's essentially it. Work out more (cardio) and be aware of what you eat. Building muscle is probably also something you want to do, because even if it doesn't help much with losing weight (you'll actually lose less as muscle also has mass). Also use a calorie tracking app, because relying on your intuition isn't likely to work (that's how you got there, after all). Remember that weight loss is a long process, it took you years/decades to put on and maintain that weight so don't expect to lose it in a week.
I am a woman who dropped in to see what it was all about because it took me back to my father who as an army officer always dressed beautifully and for the occasion. It is a joy to see a man who cares about his appearance. Born in the days of women wearing hats and gloves, it has been a real pleasure to find you. 😊
It was mentioned at my grandad's funeral that he would always leave for work in a suit, he was a metal worker specifically aviation prototypes, I'd imagine he'd don overalls on arrival but i do have one of his suits still (the one he wore to my dad's funeral)although it is a tad too big in the waist \chest for me to wear
Here's my two cents, I usually see the guy that I like in fairly casual dress shirts and dress pants, but today I saw him in a nice black suit and wow, I think my heart may have skipped a beat!
I’m a professional woman who enjoys watching these videos for tips and advice for my teenage son (especially when it comes to tying a tie or choosing a suit). I was skeptical at first, but I’ve got to say, this video is 100% accurate. My favorite tip is the one about the glasses! Couldn’t be more spot on!
Fun thing, I am changing from my Oakley now to basically no name, but silver round glasses for the classic look. On a side not, I am happily married, but I myself still care.
There are, Franziska. Check Justine Leconte's and Audrie Coyne's channels for instance. BTW, I am a woman too and a subscriber over here. Great work Sven Raphael! Grretings from Vienna :-)
Where were you when I was 25? Now, I'm 71, and I just relish your videos. Of course, I'm living in a dreamworld, imagining myself decked out in some of your timeless style suggestions. And any desire to be attractive to women could get me strangled by my long-suffering wife. And I sold off my two Rolexes years ago because, who cares? Your programs are priceless. Thank you!
What, dressing like him? Pleated trousers with huge turn-ups, that awful white cricket style V-neck jumper, red wooly gloves with a blazer...I love watching this channel as it is so shockingly bad, it’s hard to look away 😆
@@mikew742 So what do you have in you wardrobe then? He cares and has passion for a topic that is highly subjective. It is nice to have people like him dropping statements so we can build our own opinions and discuss. I also don't like everything he wears but that isn't an indicator that he has bad taste. It's just a different taste.
Keeping a trim physique is always best and shows off well in a finely tailored suit. Don't think that women can't see past the suit . . . Maintaining a smile and good posture exudes confidence to those around you !
I work for Brooks Brothers and I absolutely love your videos. They are my tutorials for helping my clients look polished and professional. As a woman, I can say that this video is spot on. Thank you!
I saw him in the suit and was somewhat attracted to him (I'm 19 😂) but when he showed an example in which he wore a t-shirt that excentuated his stomach, it was kinda weird
@@nonome4553 Over the past years I've learned, that it can be your looks, it can be your lack of confidence, or the way you talk and what you talk about with girls. But mainly it is the approach. You have to approach girls and talk to them. Get to feel comfortable doing this. I struggle with this daily and I realised, that I don't really have a lot of female friends, because I never friendzoned any of them. Wearing nice clothing might help a bit and show that you're aware of how you look, but it doesn't automatically give you a girlfriend. While I'm writing this, I haven't had any successful relationship since around 3-4 years, but I have been on many dates, doing the same mistakes of talking about serious things over and over again. So good luck mate and start talking to girls IN PERSON!
I’m a woman, and I can say that everything you list here is true. Men in nice clothes can steal my heart, or at least get me interested to continue the communication. You’ve got a really good channel here, I enjoyed watching your videos. Cheers!
As a woman i totally agree with this. 🙏 I wish there were more men my age that care for appropriate clothing. I also wish there were a channel like this for women. It's so informative. Keep up!
Same here, dear. And I have been looking for a "Ladies Gazette" ever since I found this channel and subscribed even though I am not a guy. Love the channel and the dedication and thought that goes into each video.
“Anna Bey” runs a similar channel, but she focuses mainly on Elegance, not clothing. She does recommend clothing items for an elegant, ladylike style though.
@@jessjameson285 Thanks for the tip but Anna comes across as a gold digger and a bit shallow. Personally I find that as repelling as the "plain Jane" labelling. But I discovered Justine Leconte's channel and she is down to earth, no pretense of grandeur, dresses for herself and not to hunt an "affluent" aka rich guy. So, thanks for your recommendation, it was the "side effect" that worked for me.
I am a woman that came to this channel today on the search for fountain pen guides and when I found this video I had gotten curious. Being that I am around the age of 20 I don't see many guys dressing up like this but I must agree that sweaters indeed look very nice on guys.
This is very nice to hear from women I'm a guy who loves wearing sweaters and am really interested in more classical garments; it simply matches my personality a lot For the time being, I live in a very hot city, but I'm moving out soon and am looking forward to live my style
Thank u for these videos. I’m 21 & no one really taught me how to properly dress up as a young adult , so these videos are very helpful in me finding my own style.
You know what, young idiot, if you're so afraid that you'll look like a dad, you'll never be a dad, a husband or a boyfriend more than for one night, because women don't like men who try so desperately to be eternally young that they are afraid to 'look like a dad'. Women don't like men who want to be boys forever
As a guy who recently turned 60, I liked the various styles of gloves. Never really gave much thought previously since I live in Southern California. Who says you can't teach an old dude new tricks. Love the content brother, keep it coming.
I've found that the best thing you can do is wear whatever with confidence. I've worn intentionally bad outfits for very informal occasions, but I still receive compliments on my outfits. Confidence is key!
Your wife is very attractive. I also notice that the more I work on my style, the more attention and eye stares I'm getting from women. I take the time to really iron those button down shirts and put the outfit together from head to toe. Everything is tailored and fitting and on point. Makes a HUGE difference
My father, an Air Force fighter pilot, was always well dressed for social events. He would tell me "fit above all. Even if you have to shop at Salvation Army, buy good brands and have them tailored. Wear good shoes and keep them polished. And stand up straight." I live in California and rarely go anywhere that I need to dress up, but when I do, I have a few good choices in my closet, thanks to my father. Oh yes, one more thing: "make sure your fingernails are clean"!
I remember when I was younger (like in my 20s), being outside and my neighbor’s door opened (the next house down, like 200 feet away) and as soon as the door opened, I got this overwhelming scent of cologne. Oh, it was terrible. And they’re a family with money so I’m sure it was not a cheap scent. I don’t know what it was but occasionally, being out, I will pick up that scent on a random passer by and it just brings back memories . Obviously not fond memories. It’s amazing how olfactory memories linger for so long and have such a lasting impression whether they’re positive or negative.
From my experience, women tend to associate a man wearing classic menswear with confidence and being detail-oriented. If you carry yourself well, this also strengthens the confidence part. Seeing how many of my peers dress, it's not hard to pull this off either. Basically coordinate a sport coat, optional waistcoat, trousers (dress pants or chinos work well), hat, pocket square, shoes, shirt and neckwear and you're all good to go. This look leaves a lot of room for personalization, and tells people you care enough to look smart without going over the top with formality. Maybe I'm not the best for following the latter point, given I wear a stroller with all the optional accessories once a week lol. I think another important thing, especially for the special woman in your life, is to listen to their feedback about what outfits they like the most and pleasantly surprise them. I'd also like to strengthen the point about wearing something she picked out for you, especially for dates or special events. The former shows that you listen to her, and the latter shows that you respect what she chose for you and care enough to work it into your outfits. If you can incorporate both of them, that's even better! My gf hates the look of bowler hats, striped morning trousers and evening wear, so I find myself wearing a lot of suits and sport coat combinations around her which she greatly appreciates. My indigo three-piece suit, which is my least favourite suit, is my gf's favourite, and she gets excited when it comes out of the closet. I gave her a promise ring, and she gave me a set of cufflinks, so I make sure to wear them as often as possible. We hadn't seen each other in-person for awhile, so I went up to see her for a week. Wore that suit with those cufflinks and she was beaming. She didn't need to say anything to me, her reaction said it all :)
I own a Burger Place and I'm tired of wearing branded t-shirt and I always wondered what would be nice to wear, more smart, classy, etc I didn't find it yet. It would be nice a video with your opinion of how to improve workers outfits!!
Nice seeing in the comments people around my age (20s) who also appreciate this more classical way of dressing I am a guy who really loves wearing sweaters, always loved classical jackets and am very interested in suits, always dressing properly for each occasion; it will help me flash out my personality, something that can't be done with branded t-shirts - that I don't wear anymore for the most part For the time being, I live in a very hot city, but I'm moving out soon and am looking forward to live my style Thank you for the very informative and pleasant videos!
No matter what, I won't give up my backpack when I'm grocery shopping. It's just so much more comfortable to carry the load on the back than in the hands.
I don't think this guy ever go's to the shops? I think he has it delivered or someone else does his shopping. You cannot get a weeks worth of goods in a small leather bag.
As a female I oddly love this channel. Seriously though well fitting clothes are really nice to see, a suit is gorgeous on a guy. T-shirt and shorts is fine on a long walk or at the beach but if you take a girl on a date wear a nice outfit. Oh and The Doctor got it right, bow ties are cool! 😀 I also wish there was a channel like this for women. In the meantime I love the vids you have which cover all kinds of things, like fountain pens.
Nothing odd about liking this channels content. This is the basics of style and good manners, and many men haven't been exposed to these things (sad, but that's the world we live in) and we can all stand some improvement, can't me. I'm just a bit sad that women's fashion seems so transitory, and I don't see anything that does the same thing for for women.
My girlfriend told me the way I dressed was part of what attracted her to me. We dated 3-4 months before she ever saw me in a t shirt. And that was because I helped her move! One thing I think Sven eludes to but doesnt hit head on is that women appreciate EFFORT. They aren't going to lecture you for wearing the wrong tie or shirt but the fact you like them enough to wear a tie says a lot.
Mine too. But in my case it was heavy duty black boots, jeans, t-shirt and biker leather jacket. She probably wouldn't even have talked to me if I'd been wearing a tie.
TheTrueHappy I think the question was more if he keeps ill-fitting clothes in his wardrobe - or, more likely, in a sealed box so he doesn’t wear them by accident - _just_ for demonstration purposes, like props for a presentation.
again..your clothes are super impressive.I don`t mean this to be offensive but the fact that you know how to dress and what works for you make look so attractive.
As former law enforcement one important consideration when getting your suit tailored, and it does need to be properly tailored, is for it to accommodate your off duty carry weapon. Selecting the right weapon to carry is its own subject, but an unsightly weapon bulge under a jacket will make anyone nervous, speciously a date. Every tailor worth their salt I have gone too has had no problem making the alterations in my suits for my concealed carry, and the really good tailors will have you practice drawing the weapon (empty of course) to ensure a clean movement in the suit with no hang ups. A good tailor is a must, an excellent tailor is a treasure to be cherished. You never what to intimidate a lady, but its nice to be able to protect them should the need arise.

To be honest, a lot of people have absolutely no idea when it comes to stylish menswear. I once wore an absolutely cruel piece of clothing to college just for fun and still got some sincere compliments by female friends of mine for that. It was a jacket from the 80's or 90's from my uncle that I had found on the attic. It was terribly baggy and had an almost disgustingly checked pattern of light yellow and grey.
I see groups of young guys all dressed exactly the same - loafers, jeans and a untucked shirt. If you put on a pairs of slacks and a sports coat you will stand out and be more interesting to women.
Just because you like fitted basic clothing, it doesn't mean that every thing other than that looks bad. I really like vintage jackets and pants. And I like wide clothes because slim clothes just look too average. If I wear a skinny jeans and a tight white T-Shirt, nobody notices my style. However, if I wear wide pants and an oversized shirt but still wear good-looking shoes and match them, people more likely think that I'm stylish because I don't dress like every other guy
I don't know why I'm watching this I'm 15 and the best looking clothes I have are a Varsity Jacket and A Denim Jacket with fur. It's not like this video really matters because girls my age will just find me funny if I wear clothes like this. I guess I could use this when I get older. Anyway bless you man.
Well I can say that something like a plaid shirt (preferrably with the sleeves rolled up to the forearms) and subtle cologne does wonders for guys in university so maybe you can try that out and see if you like it! Feel free not to do that though :)
@@carpet163 Just to say as well. I’m 17 so not far off your age but a good old fashioned cap and strong collar knocks them bandy. Sorry if you can’t understand some of it I’m from East London
The more I watch your videos the more I see how much of genius stylist you really are. You dress a little anachronistic but that’s your personal style. I love it that you tell people to be themselves and dress with flare.
True story: the other day I was spending time with a girl from orchestra, and she gave me a hug before we parted ways. We had spent time together before, but this time when she hugged me, she said that I smelled wonderful! Gentlemen, it's amazing what drugstore cologne can do. :) Great video, Raphael!
My style is inspired by Classic and Edwardian styles. My uniform for my going out attire is grey dress pants, matching vest, dress shirt, tie and pocket square, and a flat cap. I live close to and do the majority of our shopping in a college town. Before this Covid horseshit, my wife and I would do the shopping together, and we would always get compliments with many college girls stating they wished guys their age would dress like I do
Alot of my suits are based on lower class sack suits from that same period of history, so loose, made of heavy fabrics (except for my summer linen suits) I really like the sack suit because they can be used as work clothes when they fall out of favor ability. They themselves dress up nicely still.
I’m enjoying the channel. I lean more toward casual preppy/outdoorsy, so this channel is a bit much for my day-to-day life. Just wanted to say that I usually don’t care much for your suit choices, but the one you detail here is excellent!
I can't provide a link, but, some years ago there was a study to find out what articles of men's clothing women found attractive. Number one was a kilt! My wife concurs. Fortunately, I do have a family tartan, but, alas, the colors are not my best. Pocket squares and ties, especially bow ties, are a handy way for men to introduce a note of expression and color. Although I have to go back a few decades to my days as a bachelor, there is nothing quite like the feeling you get when a woman reaches forward and unties your bow tie with a deft yank at the loose end. It is a singular experience.
One problem with dressing well is that you can also become intimidating. My wife puts herself down because she feels out of place when I am wearing a button-down with chinos and a sport coat to the grocery store.
Free tip: if you're small and thin a local tailor is there to always help you fit your clothes :) My tailor was especially helpful for my online pieces I wasn't happy with.
One thing I have learned true my few but intense years with suits is that go with thing that you like without being to bold and dress with confidence. When you combine something classy but yet easy with yourself and you feel confident and the style looks like it belongs on you, thats a A+. I have talked to people that try to hard and looks automaticly really stiff and out of character.
It’d probably end up making world news because some insecure, professionally offended, green haired shrill will say it’s causing female oppression and is backed by the patriarchy to control what women wear.
Yes there is. It's called School of Affluence by Anna Bey. I am a woman and enjoy watching his videos for my son to teach etiquette and to try to teach them to be a gentleman. But for myself Anna bey teaches a lot of great things. Hope this helps.
Love the paisley pocket square. Yes, I am always impressed when a man wears real classy leather shoes. When I dressed like the assistant in The Devil Wears Prada in the 1980s ( I was the assistant to Rosemary Troy, Bullocks Wilshire Fashion Director then) I often referred to GQ for style tips, color combinations, and pattern mixing ideas.
This reminds me of a time I took my lady out to dinner. We went to a nice sushi restaurant, not overtly fancy but still very nice. As my lady and I were waiting on our food, we noticed a couple come in. It seemed like it was their first date. Both looked like to be in their forties. The woman dressed to impress, definatly her best, she looked stunning with a pearl necklace, shimmering dress, nice mid heals, and lovely jewlery to make the evening. The man, however, was a shame to look at. He wore a jersey shirt, cargo shorts, sandles, a cap that he did not take off, and a pair of sports sunglasses. Forgive me, they both looked to be on the bigger side, but woman looked so elegant with what she wore it didn't matter. The clothes the man wore emphasized his slob appearance. Now, not only did he look nasty, his restaurant demeanor was horrible. It is a sushi restaurant, and as he was ordering he was already complaining about how he did not want to eat any raw food, it must be cooked. The man was so loud we could hear him from the back. The woman visibly looked embarrassed. I felt absolutely terrible for the poor woman. I severely hope that was her last date with the man. During their date, there was silence. No conversation, she looked down on her food while he poked his meal not knowing what he was looking at. I got so angry just looking at the lack of care this man put for his date. I won't say clothes make the man, but it really helps.
I love this channel! Trouble is, I have begun to notice when a man’s jacket is not fitting properly around the collar. I have become obsessed. Also with shirt cuffs. I am scrutinising men too closely and making them nervous.
Im 20 and I love classics ! In fact I believe some day peoples will back to class and elegancy. Moreover that topic helps me to learn english, since I've started subscribtion, my language skill is growing up with every movie. I'm glad that someone runs such a channel on TH-cam ❤
Absolutely awesome! Stumbled upon your channel, and it is very enjoyable. As a recent graduate, I’m constantly out and about interviewing. Will definitely take some tips!
I really don't know much about men's fashions, because I don't really bother. But I love the look of a quality suit. Well made, classic tailoring and good fabric. You can always tell the difference from budget low end suits. And good shoes. Not just leather but well made.
Aww, your wife is beautiful. Taking advice from you, Ashley Weston and all you fine folks have taken me from the guy who was single his entire life to be happy and loving how I look. Having relationships with intelligent, pretty women has greatly enriched my life, they're so lovely. Thanks, Raphael.
I agree on all of that. About perfume though I experienced it differently. Our natural scent can be very attractive. My partner never wore any perfume or anything like that, just kept himself clean, and I loved his natural, very subtle scent. Unfortunately he died when he was only in his fifties, which left me absolutely devastated. I kept one of his jackets for a long time, until his smell was no longer noticable. Later on someone said maybe you get the perfume he wore to be reminded of him, that didn't work as he never used perfume, and I thought his lovely natural scent no perfume could give me.
It's interesting that the style of glasses that my father wore in the 60s is now back in fashion. Remember, it's an after shave, not a marinade. You don't need to soak in it.
I don't think I'll ever be mistaken for a gentleman, but you gave me some great ideas to bring my appearance up a notch or two without spending a lot of money. Thanks!
If you're a guy with a larger tummy area, try a sweater with stripes across the chest. I worked at a clothing store and put a larger man into one and I'll never forget the look on his face :) It broadens the shoulders and makes the tummy disappear, especially in a lighter colour.
8:36 Being a 19 year old I got a few compliments on my 'perfume' while actually wearing 'AXE'. I understand that most of them are overboard but there are few that actually nice and subtle.
Relating especially to this video in particular, I must say, that as a woman... searching for the attraction of other women without being feminine, this channel is very helpful overall! This is coming from someone who, up until recently, gave little interest in looking put together, going purely for comfort. Thank you!
I've learned how to perfectly iron men's shirts from a rich man. It' a skill in your tool box, learn it, because well ironed clothes make them look more expensive and you look more put together, like you (or someone else) care for yourself. Showing self care means you may know how to care for your loved ones. It's the same when you see a well mannered, kind person, you're attracted to them, and it has nothing to do with wealth. My grandfather was a poor metalworker and he looked like a lord on sunday, just because he had a decent pair of shoes and a well preserved coat.
This is such a cute video (in a great way). Not sure why so many men don't care about their partner or potential partner when dressing. I used to always do this and my sisters would make fun of me. I really like dressing for someone and they always notice!
Being able to be yourself and elevate your game in what you enjoy through imaginative and sensible fashion is neither simple, not impossible. But listening to good advice like what this video offers will bring more from the clothes you can wear through looking at what you wear from all angles. For instance, if you wear something that doesn't for you 100% then all the finer details that make you 'you' will not mask how you're not being yourself for the right reasons. The narrator mention's a Ralph Lauren suit is something his partner likes, but it's got to be something you like too. When that's the case, finding the right accessories to compliment is something that's not just a challenge, but an exciting challenge; being yourself AND bringing the best from a team all at the same time. Not matter what your age - or where you live - the general themes in this specific video are a superb guide to getting something right: and for the right reasons.
I like my combinations better! I work at a hospital and I dress up everyday. Today I'm wearing florsheim burgundy, grey Perris Ellis slacks (slim fit), I left the coat at home, (too hot in Arizona), burgundy Calvin Klien shirt, grey Pierre Cardin tie with black dots. I'm bald, clean shaven wearing cologne, (Aqua Di Gio) and after work, I'm headed to a Country and Western bar. I'll be the only black guy there.
I just discovered this channel -- w/in the past week. I really, really like it; I've been binging on it. I haven't seen anything like it on TH-cam. Well done and thank you.
Thank you a million times, Sven. Many women value effort and care over genetic gifts--so personal style can outweigh traditional masculine beauty in the most surprising ways if a man wants to look attractive to women. Men can create their own handsomeness, even if they are not born handsome. So I encourage experimentation with all these tips!
I learned a lot of what he's saying from my Dad and Grandfather...that has stayed with me over the years...and it's true,I get tons of compliments from all kinds of Women!
This isn't about you though. It's about what women love men to wear. Additionally, people don't have to be bikers to wear them. Like you don't have to be in the navy to wear peacoats, or be a tennis player to wear a Polo shirt, see.
@@Cownt299 You're the slow one lol. I wrote Polo shirt, as in the shirt made by Ralph Lauren to play tennis, just like the Lacoste shirt. I was not referring to the shirt worn by polo players
I just bought some second-hand, cut-down levi jeans for £1 from the local market, my SO loves them. Perfect fit, I must admit. What our SO loves will always be a mystery - a previous SO loved my knee brace, she said it made me look sporty.
The Narrator is absolutely right, I get compliments all the time. I utilize boutonnieres, pocket squares, blazers and casual pants, leather shoes and the like. I rarely if ever wear tee shirts, sweat pants or sneakers in public, just around home when doing chores or relaxing. Blue jeans? Once in a while but only designer type jeans without tears or holes. Eyeglasses? I have 4 pairs to mix and match. All the ladies like a sharp dressed men.
Y'know Sven, you really are a class act. I can tell- could tell, right away, that you are a good man with great style. And hey, can you ask for more than that? Well done campion...
I used to wear t-shirts and jeans as an overweight guy. Once I lost all the excess weight, I had to replace my wardrobe. I bought shirts and sweaters. Also nice sneakers (I am 21, go easy on me) gave me a nice look. I started getting compliments both from men and women. I started to observe that their look has changed. That gave me confidence. Thanks to everybody who had an effort on this channel, you helped me to better myself.
Any tips in loosing weight?
Dostum same thing on me, while I switched my style to business casual people act better around me all the time.
Even at a larger size, dress well. Tailoring is key. Take color cues from nature. Check out Los Cubanos Viejos, notice how they dress. Very stylish 😎!

Me too! I grew up with a father who is an officer. Always classy. Amazing from a man who didnt have shoes until he was 10 years old.
It was mentioned at my grandad's funeral that he would always leave for work in a suit, he was a metal worker specifically aviation prototypes, I'd imagine he'd don overalls on arrival but i do have one of his suits still (the one he wore to my dad's funeral)although it is a tad too big in the waist \chest for me to wear
Oh, how I like the 1940s and 30s suits.
My mother wore black leather gloves.
Here's my two cents, I usually see the guy that I like in fairly casual dress shirts and dress pants, but today I saw him in a nice black suit and wow, I think my heart may have skipped a beat!
as I've gotten older I'm a sucker for a man in a suit sporting a nice pair of glasses because to me it shows he's mature and finatually stable.
Nothing tops a man in a suit. To me as a woman, it's the essence of masculinity.
@@darlenebuck9912 Ha, I wear nice suits and glasses but I am very far from financial stability.
@@sheevinopalpatino4782 haha same!
Something about a dude in a well tailored suit. Especially if he is slightly rough around the edges. Nothing sexier...
I’m a professional woman who enjoys watching these videos for tips and advice for my teenage son (especially when it comes to tying a tie or choosing a suit). I was skeptical at first, but I’ve got to say, this video is 100% accurate. My favorite tip is the one about the glasses! Couldn’t be more spot on!
Fun thing, I am changing from my Oakley now to basically no name, but silver round glasses for the classic look. On a side not, I am happily married, but I myself still care.
Even as a women I'm in love with this Channel😍 why is there no Channel like this for women?

What, dressing like him? Pleated trousers with huge turn-ups, that awful white cricket style V-neck jumper, red wooly gloves with a blazer...I love watching this channel as it is so shockingly bad, it’s hard to look away 😆
@@mikew742 So what do you have in you wardrobe then? He cares and has passion for a topic that is highly subjective. It is nice to have people like him dropping statements so we can build our own opinions and discuss. I also don't like everything he wears but that isn't an indicator that he has bad taste. It's just a different taste.
@@mikew742 he dresses quite well. :D
Alexander Hutchison , yes.
@@mikew742 what are you wearing that seems so much better than him then huh ?
Keeping a trim physique is always best and shows off well in a finely tailored suit. Don't think that women can't see past the suit . . . Maintaining a smile and good posture exudes confidence to those around you !
Yes! Good posture usually means you grew up in a home where you were taught good manners... i.e. table manners
I work for Brooks Brothers and I absolutely love your videos. They are my tutorials for helping my clients look polished and professional. As a woman, I can say that this video is spot on. Thank you!
I´m a girl I don´t know why I´m watching this but I love it! keep it up Raphael, I love the way you explain things!
I saw him in the suit and was somewhat attracted to him (I'm 19 😂) but when he showed an example in which he wore a t-shirt that excentuated his stomach, it was kinda weird
Correction: I'm a girl. I don't know why I am watching this, but I love it! Keep it up Raphael; I love the way you explain things!
Ok but would it help me get a girl?????
@@nonome4553 Over the past years I've learned, that it can be your looks, it can be your lack of confidence, or the way you talk and what you talk about with girls.
But mainly it is the approach. You have to approach girls and talk to them. Get to feel comfortable doing this. I struggle with this daily and I realised, that I don't really have a lot of female friends, because I never friendzoned any of them.
Wearing nice clothing might help a bit and show that you're aware of how you look, but it doesn't automatically give you a girlfriend. While I'm writing this, I haven't had any successful relationship since around 3-4 years, but I have been on many dates, doing the same mistakes of talking about serious things over and over again.
So good luck mate and start talking to girls IN PERSON!
Do you agree with him??
I’m a woman, and I can say that everything you list here is true. Men in nice clothes can steal my heart, or at least get me interested to continue the communication. You’ve got a really good channel here, I enjoyed watching your videos. Cheers!
Agreed.
Are you being honest????
@Abdullah Tariq: Sure . . . until she changes her mind. Which could be in 5 seconds . . .
@@QED_ that's.....precarious, I guess
As a woman i totally agree with this. 🙏 I wish there were more men my age that care for appropriate clothing.
I also wish there were a channel like this for women. It's so informative. Keep up!
Whats your age?
Same here, dear. And I have been looking for a "Ladies Gazette" ever since I found this channel and subscribed even though I am not a guy.
Love the channel and the dedication and thought that goes into each video.
“Anna Bey” runs a similar channel, but she focuses mainly on Elegance, not clothing. She does recommend clothing items for an elegant, ladylike style though.
this!
@@jessjameson285 Thanks for the tip but Anna comes across as a gold digger and a bit shallow. Personally I find that as repelling as the "plain Jane" labelling. But I discovered Justine Leconte's channel and she is down to earth, no pretense of grandeur, dresses for herself and not to hunt an "affluent" aka rich guy.
So, thanks for your recommendation, it was the "side effect" that worked for me.
I am a woman that came to this channel today on the search for fountain pen guides and when I found this video I had gotten curious. Being that I am around the age of 20 I don't see many guys dressing up like this but I must agree that sweaters indeed look very nice on guys.
This is very nice to hear from women
I'm a guy who loves wearing sweaters and am really interested in more classical garments; it simply matches my personality a lot
For the time being, I live in a very hot city, but I'm moving out soon and am looking forward to live my style
Please never stop making these videos! This is my favourite channel!
Thank u for these videos. I’m 21 & no one really taught me how to properly dress up as a young adult , so these videos are very helpful in me finding my own style.
Don’t, unless you want to look like a dad.
I'm 60, and just learning this stuff. You got 39 years start on me!
You know what, young idiot, if you're so afraid that you'll look like a dad, you'll never be a dad, a husband or a boyfriend more than for one night, because women don't like men who try so desperately to be eternally young that they are afraid to 'look like a dad'. Women don't like men who want to be boys forever
As a guy who recently turned 60, I liked the various styles of gloves. Never really gave much thought previously since I live in Southern California. Who says you can't teach an old dude new tricks. Love the content brother, keep it coming.
I've found that the best thing you can do is wear whatever with confidence. I've worn intentionally bad outfits for very informal occasions, but I still receive compliments on my outfits. Confidence is key!
Your wife is very attractive. I also notice that the more I work on my style, the more attention and eye stares I'm getting from women. I take the time to really iron those button down shirts and put the outfit together from head to toe. Everything is tailored and fitting and on point. Makes a HUGE difference
Another tip is to soak a wrinkled shirt in water and hang it up (soaking wet) to dry. Gets rid of the wrinkles every time. :)
No, its not.
If you are copying this dude, the looks are more so because women can’t believe you’d go out in public looking like this.
the guy wears a pinky ring and a flower boutonniere Id be careful which fashion tips I take
nah bro a fire adidas tracky gets you bare birds to shag
I, as a woman, completely agree! I love your channel and, I binge-watch your videos a lot! Great content! Keep up the good work!
Oh wow, your wife is a real cutie. Way to go. This shows that being and looking like a gentleman pays off!
Used to pay off. It's 2020 now dude
Look good,feel good..
@@calvingrace2538 a lot of women still find that style more attractive than dressing in a plain white tee with baggy jeans which
@@Daniel-md5dg no one wear that bro lol. so out of touch
@@Daniel-md5dg baggy jeans are cool
My father, an Air Force fighter pilot, was always well dressed for social events. He would tell me "fit above all. Even if you have to shop at Salvation Army, buy good brands and have them tailored. Wear good shoes and keep them polished. And stand up straight." I live in California and rarely go anywhere that I need to dress up, but when I do, I have a few good choices in my closet, thanks to my father. Oh yes, one more thing: "make sure your fingernails are clean"!
I remember when I was younger (like in my 20s), being outside and my neighbor’s door opened (the next house down, like 200 feet away) and as soon as the door opened, I got this overwhelming scent of cologne. Oh, it was terrible. And they’re a family with money so I’m sure it was not a cheap scent. I don’t know what it was but occasionally, being out, I will pick up that scent on a random passer by and it just brings back memories . Obviously not fond memories. It’s amazing how olfactory memories linger for so long and have such a lasting impression whether they’re positive or negative.
From my experience, women tend to associate a man wearing classic menswear with confidence and being detail-oriented. If you carry yourself well, this also strengthens the confidence part. Seeing how many of my peers dress, it's not hard to pull this off either. Basically coordinate a sport coat, optional waistcoat, trousers (dress pants or chinos work well), hat, pocket square, shoes, shirt and neckwear and you're all good to go. This look leaves a lot of room for personalization, and tells people you care enough to look smart without going over the top with formality. Maybe I'm not the best for following the latter point, given I wear a stroller with all the optional accessories once a week lol.
I think another important thing, especially for the special woman in your life, is to listen to their feedback about what outfits they like the most and pleasantly surprise them. I'd also like to strengthen the point about wearing something she picked out for you, especially for dates or special events. The former shows that you listen to her, and the latter shows that you respect what she chose for you and care enough to work it into your outfits. If you can incorporate both of them, that's even better! My gf hates the look of bowler hats, striped morning trousers and evening wear, so I find myself wearing a lot of suits and sport coat combinations around her which she greatly appreciates.
My indigo three-piece suit, which is my least favourite suit, is my gf's favourite, and she gets excited when it comes out of the closet. I gave her a promise ring, and she gave me a set of cufflinks, so I make sure to wear them as often as possible. We hadn't seen each other in-person for awhile, so I went up to see her for a week. Wore that suit with those cufflinks and she was beaming. She didn't need to say anything to me, her reaction said it all :)
I am woman and actually just watching this to gleen some pointers for my brother. You are full of good advice and ideas. Great channel.
I am man.
I don't know why this channel showed up on my TH-cam list but I love it. As a woman, I assure you that the tips on this video are spot on.
Wear something your GF bought you that she likes is a nice touch. I do this now and again and she often comments on it. It’s a nice boost for us both.
My partner bought me a perfume and goes crazy (in a good way!) when I have it on lol
I own a Burger Place and I'm tired of wearing branded t-shirt and I always wondered what would be nice to wear, more smart, classy, etc I didn't find it yet. It would be nice a video with your opinion of how to improve workers outfits!!
Wow, man! I like your attitude!
I would love to stop by a Burger Place where the workers dressed better, really nice idea
Nice seeing in the comments people around my age (20s) who also appreciate this more classical way of dressing
I am a guy who really loves wearing sweaters, always loved classical jackets and am very interested in suits, always dressing properly for each occasion; it will help me flash out my personality, something that can't be done with branded t-shirts - that I don't wear anymore for the most part
For the time being, I live in a very hot city, but I'm moving out soon and am looking forward to live my style
Thank you for the very informative and pleasant videos!
No matter what, I won't give up my backpack when I'm grocery shopping. It's just so much more comfortable to carry the load on the back than in the hands.
Why would you need to wear your backpack into the grocery store?
@@michaelmerck7576 To put my groceries in. I can't snap my fingers and summon it like a genie.
I don't think this guy ever go's to the shops? I think he has it delivered or someone else does his shopping.
You cannot get a weeks worth of goods in a small leather bag.
@@michaelmerck7576 if you don't drive to the store?
As a female I oddly love this channel. Seriously though well fitting clothes are really nice to see, a suit is gorgeous on a guy. T-shirt and shorts is fine on a long walk or at the beach but if you take a girl on a date wear a nice outfit.
Oh and The Doctor got it right, bow ties are cool! 😀
I also wish there was a channel like this for women. In the meantime I love the vids you have which cover all kinds of things, like fountain pens.
Nothing odd about liking this channels content. This is the basics of style and good manners, and many men haven't been exposed to these things (sad, but that's the world we live in) and we can all stand some improvement, can't me. I'm just a bit sad that women's fashion seems so transitory, and I don't see anything that does the same thing for for women.
My girlfriend told me the way I dressed was part of what attracted her to me. We dated 3-4 months before she ever saw me in a t shirt. And that was because I helped her move!
One thing I think Sven eludes to but doesnt hit head on is that women appreciate EFFORT. They aren't going to lecture you for wearing the wrong tie or shirt but the fact you like them enough to wear a tie says a lot.
Mine too. But in my case it was heavy duty black boots, jeans, t-shirt and biker leather jacket. She probably wouldn't even have talked to me if I'd been wearing a tie.
I feel sorry for moving men then; they all must still be single. :)
s
One thing women like more than a man in nice clothes, is a man they see lift heavy objects.
Do you actually have unfitting clothes for demonstration purposes?
pikkuhakki2 yea, he showed them in the video while he was talking.
TheTrueHappy I think the question was more if he keeps ill-fitting clothes in his wardrobe - or, more likely, in a sealed box so he doesn’t wear them by accident - _just_ for demonstration purposes, like props for a presentation.
@@PhycoKrusk Prob just bad puchases from the past, I know I got a few bad pieces at the bottom of my dresser.

He owns (or represents) a men's store, I'm guessing it is stock from the store.
Showing a Sonics jersey is just kicking us when we’re down a decade later. Great video though!
again..your clothes are super impressive.I don`t mean this to be offensive but the fact that you know how to dress and what works for you make look so attractive.
It's actually intimidating!!!
As former law enforcement one important consideration when getting your suit tailored, and it does need to be properly tailored, is for it to accommodate your off duty carry weapon. Selecting the right weapon to carry is its own subject, but an unsightly weapon bulge under a jacket will make anyone nervous, speciously a date. Every tailor worth their salt I have gone too has had no problem making the alterations in my suits for my concealed carry, and the really good tailors will have you practice drawing the weapon (empty of course) to ensure a clean movement in the suit with no hang ups. A good tailor is a must, an excellent tailor is a treasure to be cherished. You never what to intimidate a lady, but its nice to be able to protect them should the need arise.
Why would you lead with being former law enforcement? I swear, even the retired blue isis can't help throwing their fragile egos around.
Probably some night guard referring to ‚his guys at the PD‘

Luckly, in the civil world no one go out to a date with a weapon. You need to live in a quite unsafe country to feel this need.
8:40 - is Douchebag a real cologne? That's hilarious.
man i still laughing
Yes, Yes it is.
I just hit that part and died. Apparently it is real too
Basic rule. It is always best to dress up then dress down. Dress to impress. Great channel. Very informative.
Florida Gator1 Not to impress. To be impressivr
To be honest, a lot of people have absolutely no idea when it comes to stylish menswear. I once wore an absolutely cruel piece of clothing to college just for fun and still got some sincere compliments by female friends of mine for that. It was a jacket from the 80's or 90's from my uncle that I had found on the attic. It was terribly baggy and had an almost disgustingly checked pattern of light yellow and grey.
I see groups of young guys all dressed exactly the same - loafers, jeans and a untucked shirt. If you put on a pairs of slacks and a sports coat you will stand out and be more interesting to women.
Mate tweed is high-class for casual, that's why you got compliments!
Just because you like fitted basic clothing, it doesn't mean that every thing other than that looks bad. I really like vintage jackets and pants. And I like wide clothes because slim clothes just look too average. If I wear a skinny jeans and a tight white T-Shirt, nobody notices my style. However, if I wear wide pants and an oversized shirt but still wear good-looking shoes and match them, people more likely think that I'm stylish because I don't dress like every other guy
@@lobserve1 What are loafers and slacks?
I'm starting to think that all the little rules and guidelines of menswear are there just so that well-dressed men can identify each other lol
I don't know why I'm watching this I'm 15 and the best looking clothes I have are a Varsity Jacket and A Denim Jacket with fur. It's not like this video really matters because girls my age will just find me funny if I wear clothes like this. I guess I could use this when I get older. Anyway bless you man.
Well I can say that something like a plaid shirt (preferrably with the sleeves rolled up to the forearms) and subtle cologne does wonders for guys in university so maybe you can try that out and see if you like it! Feel free not to do that though :)
Just go for it son. You’ll get the girls I know it
@@georgemackins9500 Alright thanks.
@@carpet163 Woah. Quick response for something 11 months ago

The more I watch your videos the more I see how much of genius stylist you really are. You dress a little anachronistic but that’s your personal style. I love it that you tell people to be themselves and dress with flare.
I love the idea of wearing a felt flower. I'm a biologist so this is a great way to incorporate that into my look. Thanks for the hints and ideas!
True story: the other day I was spending time with a girl from orchestra, and she gave me a hug before we parted ways. We had spent time together before, but this time when she hugged me, she said that I smelled wonderful! Gentlemen, it's amazing what drugstore cologne can do. :) Great video, Raphael!

My style is inspired by Classic and Edwardian styles. My uniform for my going out attire is grey dress pants, matching vest, dress shirt, tie and pocket square, and a flat cap.
I live close to and do the majority of our shopping in a college town. Before this Covid horseshit, my wife and I would do the shopping together, and we would always get compliments with many college girls stating they wished guys their age would dress like I do
Alot of my suits are based on lower class sack suits from that same period of history, so loose, made of heavy fabrics (except for my summer linen suits) I really like the sack suit because they can be used as work clothes when they fall out of favor ability. They themselves dress up nicely still.
I’m enjoying the channel. I lean more toward casual preppy/outdoorsy, so this channel is a bit much for my day-to-day life. Just wanted to say that I usually don’t care much for your suit choices, but the one you detail here is excellent!
I'm just 15 but this is a fun personal interest
I can't provide a link, but, some years ago there was a study to find out what articles of men's clothing women found attractive. Number one was a kilt! My wife concurs. Fortunately, I do have a family tartan, but, alas, the colors are not my best. Pocket squares and ties, especially bow ties, are a handy way for men to introduce a note of expression and color. Although I have to go back a few decades to my days as a bachelor, there is nothing quite like the feeling you get when a woman reaches forward and unties your bow tie with a deft yank at the loose end. It is a singular experience.
Those kind of studies rely on what they say. They may even think it, but what do they like subconsciously? And thus really?
One problem with dressing well is that you can also become intimidating. My wife puts herself down because she feels out of place when I am wearing a button-down with chinos and a sport coat to the grocery store.
CatatonicBug that's more of a reflection of her than it is of you
@Duke Of Prunes Divorce doesn't cost anything if you're smart.

My father was in the Navy - he ironed his own shirts! He wouldn't let my mother near them, and he was soooo proud of his cufflinks
Free tip: if you're small and thin a local tailor is there to always help you fit your clothes :)
My tailor was especially helpful for my online pieces I wasn't happy with.
One thing I have learned true my few but intense years with suits is that go with thing that you like without being to bold and dress with confidence.
When you combine something classy but yet easy with yourself and you feel confident and the style looks like it belongs on you, thats a A+.
I have talked to people that try to hard and looks automaticly really stiff and out of character.
Is there a female version of this channel?
Hechetonchieres yes please, maybe his wife will someday?
It’d probably end up making world news because some insecure, professionally offended, green haired shrill will say it’s causing female oppression and is backed by the patriarchy to control what women wear.
Justine Leconte, she is a designer and has a style channel.
Yes there is. It's called School of Affluence by Anna Bey. I am a woman and enjoy watching his videos for my son to teach etiquette and to try to teach them to be a gentleman. But for myself Anna bey teaches a lot of great things. Hope this helps.
Vintage gentlelady teaching you how to dress and act like a proper gentlelady? Plenty actually
I've watched several of your videos. This is your best look IMO.
You hear that guys, “make sure it’s not overly tight.” Some guys out there wear super tight suits and think they look amazing 😂😂😂
Well tailored and tight are two very different things.
Love the paisley pocket square. Yes, I am always impressed when a man wears real classy leather shoes. When I dressed like the assistant in The Devil Wears Prada in the 1980s ( I was the assistant to Rosemary Troy, Bullocks Wilshire Fashion Director then) I often referred to GQ for style tips, color combinations, and pattern mixing ideas.
This reminds me of a time I took my lady out to dinner. We went to a nice sushi restaurant, not overtly fancy but still very nice.
As my lady and I were waiting on our food, we noticed a couple come in. It seemed like it was their first date. Both looked like to be in their forties. The woman dressed to impress, definatly her best, she looked stunning with a pearl necklace, shimmering dress, nice mid heals, and lovely jewlery to make the evening. The man, however, was a shame to look at. He wore a jersey shirt, cargo shorts, sandles, a cap that he did not take off, and a pair of sports sunglasses.
Forgive me, they both looked to be on the bigger side, but woman looked so elegant with what she wore it didn't matter. The clothes the man wore emphasized his slob appearance.
Now, not only did he look nasty, his restaurant demeanor was horrible. It is a sushi restaurant, and as he was ordering he was already complaining about how he did not want to eat any raw food, it must be cooked. The man was so loud we could hear him from the back. The woman visibly looked embarrassed.
I felt absolutely terrible for the poor woman. I severely hope that was her last date with the man.
During their date, there was silence. No conversation, she looked down on her food while he poked his meal not knowing what he was looking at. I got so angry just looking at the lack of care this man put for his date.
I won't say clothes make the man, but it really helps.
The number one thing women love are straight men! So much for this channel!
OMG! This bloke is spot on (and hilarious)! And I love the cufflinks!
My ex introduced me to this channel... now I can’t stop watching ...great job!
I love this channel! Trouble is, I have begun to notice when a man’s jacket is not fitting properly around the collar. I have become obsessed. Also with shirt cuffs. I am scrutinising men too closely and making them nervous.
Im 20 and I love classics ! In fact I believe some day peoples will back to class and elegancy. Moreover that topic helps me to learn english, since I've started subscribtion, my language skill is growing up with every movie. I'm glad that someone runs such a channel on TH-cam ❤
Absolutely awesome! Stumbled upon your channel, and it is very enjoyable. As a recent graduate, I’m constantly out and about interviewing. Will definitely take some tips!
I really don't know much about men's fashions, because I don't really bother. But I love the look of a quality suit. Well made, classic tailoring and good fabric. You can always tell the difference from budget low end suits. And good shoes. Not just leather but well made.
I’m so glad I found this and now a subscriber. I’m ready to suggest or strongly recommend most of the items mentioned to my husband, and my brother.
i love the brown suit a lot! and the combo with the grey trousers is a nice touch too. nice video!
Aww, your wife is beautiful. Taking advice from you, Ashley Weston and all you fine folks have taken me from the guy who was single his entire life to be happy and loving how I look. Having relationships with intelligent, pretty women has greatly enriched my life, they're so lovely. Thanks, Raphael.
+Jeremiah Bok congratulations!
I agree on all of that. About perfume though I experienced it differently. Our natural scent can be very attractive. My partner never wore any perfume or anything like that, just kept himself clean, and I loved his natural, very subtle scent. Unfortunately he died when he was only in his fifties, which left me absolutely devastated. I kept one of his jackets for a long time, until his smell was no longer noticable. Later on someone said maybe you get the perfume he wore to be reminded of him, that didn't work as he never used perfume, and I thought his lovely natural scent no perfume could give me.
It's interesting that the style of glasses that my father wore in the 60s is now back in fashion. Remember, it's an after shave, not a marinade. You don't need to soak in it.
I don't think I'll ever be mistaken for a gentleman, but you gave me some great ideas to bring my appearance up a notch or two without spending a lot of money. Thanks!
If you're a guy with a larger tummy area, try a sweater with stripes across the chest. I worked at a clothing store and put a larger man into one and I'll never forget the look on his face :) It broadens the shoulders and makes the tummy disappear, especially in a lighter colour.
This man's channel is like _masculinity_ but without the toxic part
I love these combos, women approved. Thanks for this!
a woman named james?
8:36 Being a 19 year old I got a few compliments on my 'perfume' while actually wearing 'AXE'. I understand that most of them are overboard but there are few that actually nice and subtle.
Relating especially to this video in particular, I must say, that as a woman... searching for the attraction of other women without being feminine, this channel is very helpful overall! This is coming from someone who, up until recently, gave little interest in looking put together, going purely for comfort. Thank you!
Loved those claw cuff links. I am not into French cuffs but would wear them just to show off my claw style links.
I would watch this channel just for the Bari Sax groove at the intro.....and the outro
I’ve tried Shazam and scoured Google trying to find sheet music for this little diddy, no luck
Bravo for your channel! As a woman, I appreciate it a lot! Thank you!
I've learned how to perfectly iron men's shirts from a rich man. It' a skill in your tool box, learn it, because well ironed clothes make them look more expensive and you look more put together, like you (or someone else) care for yourself. Showing self care means you may know how to care for your loved ones. It's the same when you see a well mannered, kind person, you're attracted to them, and it has nothing to do with wealth.
My grandfather was a poor metalworker and he looked like a lord on sunday, just because he had a decent pair of shoes and a well preserved coat.
A kilt. Gents, wear kilts. It's a very versatile garment.
This is such a cute video (in a great way). Not sure why so many men don't care about their partner or potential partner when dressing. I used to always do this and my sisters would make fun of me. I really like dressing for someone and they always notice!
You are an excellent gentleman and I applaud you. This world needs more men like you.
Because people are selfish these days
Being able to be yourself
and elevate your game in what you enjoy
through imaginative and sensible fashion
is neither simple, not impossible.
But listening to good advice
like what this video offers
will bring more from the clothes you can wear
through looking at what you wear from all angles.
For instance,
if you wear something that doesn't for you 100%
then all the finer details that make you 'you'
will not mask how you're not being yourself for the right reasons.
The narrator mention's a Ralph Lauren suit is something his partner likes,
but it's got to be something you like too.
When that's the case,
finding the right accessories to compliment is something that's not just a challenge, but an exciting challenge;
being yourself AND bringing the best from a team
all at the same time.
Not matter what your age -
or where you live -
the general themes in this specific video
are a superb guide to getting something right: and for the right reasons.
That outfit you used on thursday, that jacket is the perfect 30's look. But I loved them all
If you dress smart, you’ll sense and find people respect you more. Actually works, it’s pretty crazy and you’ll notice the difference in shops.
Very true.
I like my combinations better! I work at a hospital and I dress up everyday. Today I'm wearing florsheim burgundy, grey Perris Ellis slacks (slim fit), I left the coat at home, (too hot in Arizona), burgundy Calvin Klien shirt, grey Pierre Cardin tie with black dots. I'm bald, clean shaven wearing cologne, (Aqua Di Gio) and after work, I'm headed to a Country and Western bar. I'll be the only black guy there.
I just discovered this channel -- w/in the past week. I really, really like it; I've been binging on it. I haven't seen anything like it on TH-cam. Well done and thank you.
Thank you a million times, Sven. Many women value effort and care over genetic gifts--so personal style can outweigh traditional masculine beauty in the most surprising ways if a man wants to look attractive to women. Men can create their own handsomeness, even if they are not born handsome. So I encourage experimentation with all these tips!

Could you do a video on leather biker jackets? They are classic after all, from the 1950's! Thanks
This isn't about you though. It's about what women love men to wear. Additionally, people don't have to be bikers to wear them. Like you don't have to be in the navy to wear peacoats, or be a tennis player to wear a Polo shirt, see.
In my opinion, do yourself a favor and don't wear a tacky leather jacket.

@@Cownt299 You're the slow one lol. I wrote Polo shirt, as in the shirt made by Ralph Lauren to play tennis, just like the Lacoste shirt. I was not referring to the shirt worn by polo players
@Wheeler Dealer Polo shirts were first used for polo, and then designed specifically for tennis much later.
I just bought some second-hand, cut-down levi jeans for £1 from the local market, my SO loves them. Perfect fit, I must admit. What our SO loves will always be a mystery - a previous SO loved my knee brace, she said it made me look sporty.
How about a video on british style?
Really a great youtube channel. Can't believe I haven't found it until now
I liked that picture of you and your wife, you guys look great together.
The Narrator is absolutely right, I get compliments all the time. I utilize boutonnieres, pocket squares, blazers and casual pants, leather shoes and the like. I rarely if ever wear tee shirts, sweat pants or sneakers in public, just around home when doing chores or relaxing. Blue jeans? Once in a while but only designer type jeans without tears or holes. Eyeglasses? I have 4 pairs to mix and match. All the ladies like a sharp dressed men.
A man can look sharp dressed in jeans and t-shirt.
Wearing as such, you just look like everyone else. It's nice to look a cut above, the ladies will always notice that. @@ian1352
All of this is good advise, but do you have any recommendations for someone in Florida where it’s really hot and humid 3/4 of the year?
They have a few videos of summer styles
Or east Siberia were its minus 50 every day in the winter.
This man has given us very Valuable Knowledge
Laughed my ass off at the scents part. Great video, Sven!
Y'know Sven, you really are a class act. I can tell- could tell, right away, that you are a good man with great style. And hey, can you ask for more than that? Well done campion...
Also I love your outfit it’s very classic and Sherlock Holmesy which is a really good thing hahaha I love it
Wow, I love the glove and vest combination, very striking with the pocket square. As usual, excellent advice.
